Michigan 8 Hour 2017 NEC Code Changes for Sign Specialists

  • 8 Hour Course
  • $95.00

A brisk and innovative survey of the 2017 code changes most relevant to sign technicians, this state-approved course provides the full 8 hours of continuing education required for license renewal. Every amendment made by Michigan when adopting the 2017 NEC as the basis for the 2017 Michigan Electrical Code is looked at for its relevance and impact. That's followed by a course specifically designed for this license type, selecting from the many significant code changes made to the 2017 NEC to focus on those most likely to impact sign electricians.

The course is comprised of two classes:

  1. Michigan's Amendments to the 2017 NEC for the 2017 Michigan Electrical Code;
  2. A Survey Class - selected changes to the 2017 Michigan Electrical Code, Chapters 1-3 & Chapter 6.

The course provides a thumbnail of the changes, a cut-and-paste review of the changes themselves, and a discussion of the reasons for the changes as well as what it means for working electricians. The discussions are based on the deliberations of the Technical Committees and other authoritative sources as well as on industry publications and best practices.

The goal is not only to look at each change but to see how the codes fit together and the directions the codes are heading. By the end of the class, the student will be brought up-to-date on those codes and standards needed for their license type along with enhanced ability to navigate and use the Michigan Electrical Code.
